Year of Plenty Ferment Kit - 2 Fermenting Mason Jars, 2 Fermentation Weights & 2 Fermenting Lids

excelentes frascos y muy prácticos. Los he usado solo para fermentar repollo y quedó espectacular. La esclusa permite que se liberen los gases sin dejar que entre el oxígeno, es fundamental para asegurar un proceso higiénico y seguro, los pesos de vidrio también, para que queden todos los vegetales bien sumergidos en su propio líquido. Estoy super contenta con esta compra, los seguiré usando y seguramente compraré más.

After I attempted my first fermenting recipe, I got a small crack in the bottle. The manufacturer replaced it immediately, which I really appreciated. It worked great for fermenting I might try some larger jars

as advertised

Works great for making fermented hot sauce.

If you've never fermented any foods before and have zero equipment, then this kit is a decent way to get started, but it has several issues:1) The lids are terrible - as others have mentioned, if you tighten them even a little bit they will pop off. It's simply because they are made of incredibly cheap plastic, which flexes easily. Fortunately you don't need to tighten them much anyway. Just as long as they are on and the threads catch a little, it's probably good enough. The important thing is that your food is submerged under the brine, so whether the cap is tight or not doesn't really matter.2) The jars are too small. I mean, they'll work and you'll get some nice fermented food, but you will immediately start looking for 32 ounce wide mouth Mason jars.3) The airlocks are useless. As noted above, the lids cannot be tightened without popping off, so it is impossible for enough pressure to build up to cause a bubble in the airlock. The airlocks themselves are fine, so if you make beer or wine, you can use them there. Fortunately for me, I do, and I have.The weights are the most valuable part of this kit. My recommendation is to pack and fill the jars nearly to the top with brine, then insert the weight (which will cause it to overflow, so do it at the sink). Then gently screw the lid on. As mentioned above, the important thing is that the food is submerged, so doing this will accomplish that. Overall, it's a very "meh" kit, but it is sufficient to get you started if you have nothing now.

As described. Delivered on time. I’m new to fermenting. New batch ongoing now. No mess on my countertop or plate. The glass press helps smash the fermentation down. Love it.

These are perfect easy to use very versatile with wide mouth jars

Lids were defective and wouldn’t screw on. In fact, they would pop off with minimal contact. Very poor quality
